New Gwent cards, a series of fresh quests to explore and, according to CD Projekt Red, “lots of new creatures” for Geralt to slay.

That’s just some of the content lining The Witcher 3‘s conclusive expansion Blood and Wine, according to Senior Animator Jamie Bury, who spoke with Good Game in anticipation of the DLC’s seemingly imminent arrival. Exactly what creatures players will be facing remains a mystery for now, but promo artwork for the add-on does offer an indication of the demonic nasties Geralt will soon be facing.

Clocking in at around 20 hours in length, the hotly-anticipated Blood and Wine introduces players to Toussaint, the “new realm [CD Projekt Red] is creating for the expansion, is unlike anything you’ve seen in Wild Hunt – carefree and colorful, but your gut never stops telling you that there’s some real dark stuff happening underneath all that.”

The Witcher 3‘s Blood and Wine DLC is expected to land at some point during the summer, and we’ll surely get firm details of CD Projekt Red’s release plans come next week.
